From October 1985: the next issue in my patchy run of DOCTOR WHO BULLETIN fanzines, the premiere zine devoted to the show in the Eighties and early Nineties
I acquired this years ago from a basement store called OFFWORLD back in the 90's. Its long gone since but at the time , they had a great ( if pricey ) range of star wars stuff. The resurgence of interest in the saga had sent the value of the original marvel comics through the roof and this store was charging 10 pounds for a single issue !
Yup. That's the one. Although the copy I have is in better condition than that one. My original 1983 copy was an essential reference, especially before West End started to issue the Role Playing sourcebooks in 1987.
is this the jedi one-shot you were referring to ? :
